Premium with HDMI?

- Start date
Oh my god, i'm at a loss for words, read my intitial post properly then reply, big sigh.
Ok so your wanting MS to recall all current none HDMI stock and send to repair to be given the new heatsink....correct
Now if they pull all that stock for repair, they will have to replace that stock with the new heatsink design....correct
Now once the old stock is repaired with the new heatsink, where does it go.....back into the shops....correct
MS do not replace your console you send for repair with a new one, so why would this affect the repair times, would it not increase them considering your now expecting them to fix how many thousand more consoles.....correct
So lay off the insults your the one making the silly comments.
Kreeeee did then you questioned it
So what's your thinking behind this idea, double the stock to cut repair times by 20 days or so?
Indeed, my point was it's more cost effective to repair them as they come in rather than have stock sitting there. It may not me time effective or provide great customer satisfaction (if they were worried about that they wouldn't break in the first place
) but profits uber alles.
sorry, i should have made it clear; i ment like dead skins, crumbs..etc
just like my black keyboard.

No, not correct, absolutely wrong, i said nothing of the sort.
As you were wrong on the first point, you're wrong on that too.
As above, wrong again.
Actually if your console is beyond repair, they do replace it. Which doesn't matter because as you've got it all wrong so far this is point is void.
You're the one making silly comments because you have read my first post, got it wrong, kept getting it wrong and based your whole argument on your own ideas on what you 'thought' I meant. Insults? You insulted yourself with your own lack of 'think before you type'
Explain how I am wrong, you think it would be sensible to send all existing stock to repair, there is your quote, you clearly say recall all existing stock and send to repair, clearly you said it, so why are you lying?
So again I will ask you, if they follow your shining example of good business and recall all existing stock and send for repair, do you suggest they leave shops with no consoles to sell, bright idea that aint it. LOL And again I will ask you how sending thousands of consoles for repair to already overloaded repair centres will speed up the repair process for current customers...LOL
Your probably best to just give up with this one, you made a rather silly comment and now are trying to deny it rather than just admit it, it's ok to admit you were wrong, no big deal.

woah chill guys, it doesn't matter lol.
Getting more to the point of the thread....I'm planning on buying my first 360 in the near future, should I wait for the new premium with new heatsink etc? or is that going to take months to arrive and so would I be better just getting a premium now?

The elite has the new cooling system fitted now.

Just get one now. All new Premiums will have the heatsink / mobo revisions but it's going to be hit/miss for a while whether you'll get one or not. At the end of the day though, it's still the same box and plays the same games and there's still a good chance even with the old revision you'll not have a problem (Mine, Nokkons etc are/were well over 20 months old).
MS are revising the console the whole time with small changes, different makes of DVD drive and fan (though sometimes newer doesn't necessarily mean better (the newer Elites have noisier fans for example)) and remember you're covered should something go wrong.
Get one now and start catching up with some of the great games you've missed before the Autumn / Winter line up swamps us.
No Mr Men, this is my quote
Where there do I say to 'repair' exsisting stock? CLEARLY I don't say it, how CLEAR can you not see it? I say send it to repair centres, nothing more, is that CLEAR to you now? So obviously I am not lying as is CLEARY shown, is that explanation ok for you?
As has been shown above, I did not mention the word 'repair' so the only suggestion of empty shops and even more overloaded repair centres is your stupidity in not reading my original post properly.
I like this one
Ok my last post on this matter, just to CLEAR thing up for you Mr Men, just So you don't have to invent, assume or dream anymore fairytales. Firstly take a look at my original post (quoted again for you) My point was, the current stock in shops are still the old design, more prone to failure models, agreed? Now what's the chance of these failing and getting sent to MS for repair? As high as always, ok? Now as we know, there is a huge backlog already at MS repair centres with people waiting up to 35 days for their console back.
Say, for example MS send 50 new HDMI equipped premiums (with new heatsink design) to a shop, the shop puts their old stock on the same lorry that just brought the new ones, the lorry goes back to where it came from and the old stock goes to repair centre 'x'. So the shop now has better designed and less likely to 'die' 360's in stock, agreed?
Now, the advantages of this? The MS repair centre uses those 50 new 360's and sends them out to customers who's 360's have died and are not fixable. This helps reduces the backlog of repairs, also because the shop has sold people the newer design consoles, these, in turn are less likely to break and end up in the repair centre themselves... The point is my fluffly little friend, new customers get new design, old customers get consoles back quicker from repair. I never said anything about changing new 360's to the new design, I never said anything about repairing new consoles, if you had simply read my first post, or even just asked exactly what I meant instead of mouthing off and throwing loads of assumed claims around this could all have been avoided.
If you buy one now it's a gamble, you can always buy one, take it home and have a look to see if it is the new design. If not, take it back, get your money back and buy another one, take it home, have a look... You get the idea.

JBeck your initial post was very badly worded if thats what you were trying to convey. If you had just explained yourself properly initially the argument wouldn't have been needed.
LOL JBeck
So your now saying you want all the existing stock to be sent to those customers that are waiting for repairs? But as already said you don't get a new machine unless totally needed, which aint often. As they just repair your current one, and put in the new heatsink, which I think is better than being sent an old machine just as likely to fail again would you not say.
I'm glad your done though, as your point is still silly and not very feasible.

Indeed, but it would clear the initial backlog and give new customers some gaurantee that they would be getting the improved design, happy customers are what counts.
Mr Men - I never said it was 'the' thing to do and would solve all problems, again if you check my initial post you'll see it was 'just a thought'
Shamikebab - It was just a quick reply, if someone had asked (and not ranted like a child) exactly what I meant then I would have happily explained.
